I was having serious paper withdrawls and decided it was time to play with some paper....I've been busy busy trying to learn the Inkscape and SCAL programs to use with my CE ....I'm getting there but it is taking time.....
Tonight I decided to take one of my graphic images I've collected over the years and make it into a .svg file that I could cut with my cricut......I'm PROUD to say I succeeded!!!! I made the Santa on the card with my cricut...then created the card to attach santa to....
Santa I cut out four different times....white/off white/black/red....then I pieced him together...I used an embossing pen to coat each white piece and then embossed with some glitter white embossing power....then coated the red with a burgandy embossing powder and embossed....the ball of his hat I used some dimensional glue then cut up some white yarn to make fuzz and stuck into the dimension glue.......I then used some distress ink aged paper and stippled all over santa to give him a bit of an aged look to kinda blend in with the color of tag I created.....
The tag I colored with 2 different distress inks that I smeared all over the tag.....used some of my pearl ex spritzers to give a bit of a glimer.....wiped the edges with some distress embossing ink and used some of my distress embossing powder in the rust color...embossed the edges....attached some ribbons to the bottom.....I had some floral pieces that I sliced the berries in half punched out some leaves to layer below the berries and attached the berries..added fibers and lifted santa up off the tag a bit and there ya go!!! I LOVE the way this card turned out!!!
So, what do ya think??? I would love to receive your feed back...please leave me your thoughts!!! Thank you so much for stopping by to visit with me.....please come again...until then....
